Red
Sold individually
Drink or Keep
This cuvée comes from granite and manganese soils in the communes of Chénas and Romanèche Thorins. A lovely Moulin-à-Vent that develops scents of faded rose and candied fruit. A full-bodied, heady, racy, well-structured wine that will wait its time... Lots of charm!

Expert opinion
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2022) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
On the borders of Burgundy and Beaujolais, this château takes its name from Sieur Bonnet, alderman of the town of Mâcon, who built a manor house here in 1630, where Lamartine later stayed. Acquired by the Perrachon family in 1973, the estate now boasts 22 ha of vines. Pierre-Yves Perrachon, head of the estate since 1988, was joined in 2013 by his daughter Charlotte, a nologue. He has also joined forces with a winegrower from the Mâconnais region to complete his operation with a trading structure, Bourgogne Sélect.
